Hey folks, I'm planning to apply to UC Davis and I'm curious about the average GPA for admitted students. Any info would be great. Thanks!
Hello! The average GPA for admitted students at UC Davis is quite competitive. For the Fall 2023 incoming class, the average weighted GPA fell in the 4.03 to 4.27 range. Keep in mind that UC Davis calculates GPA based on grades earned in a-g courses during 10th and 11th grades only, and up to a maximum of 8 semesters of honors or AP courses are weighted if taken during your 10th to 11th-grade years.
Remember, UC Davis, like other UC campuses, practices comprehensive review—it's not just about your GPA. They'll also consider your extracurricular activities, personal statements, course rigor, and other factors during the admissions process. It's essential to present a strong, well-rounded application to improve your chances.
Best of luck with your application to UC Davis!
